The Children's Place Academy Erin Fouse

High Quality Child Care and Pre-School Facility

Sitter
in Hollidaysburg

We love to do many hands-on activities with the children, and often involve the family in such things. We offer holiday performances, parent/child meals, photo uploads to a private Shutterfly account (so you can stay connected to your child throughout the day), field trips, dance class through Blair Dance Academy, Music class through a state certified music teacher, and Tumble Bus once a week, and so much more! Our Pre-School and Pre-K curriculum are designed to thoroughly prepare your child for her elementary school academic experience. We stay in touch with local Kindergarten teachers to verify we are properly preparing the children for the ever changing curriculum.
The Children's Place Academy is enrolled with the CACFP (Child and Adult Care Food Program) which allows us to serve very nutritious meals for free to all of our families (with just a few papers that will need filled out from your family). For our infants we have selected to offer (through the Food Program) Similac Advanced. If you happen to use that formula for your infant, we provide that free of charge, along with baby food and table food (when your child reaches those milestones).
We offer two types of scheduling: Flexible or Set Scheduling. With Flexible scheduling, you're welcome to email your schedule for the following week (on the Tuesday prior to the week of care needed). Selecting this method is helpful for families, because you can change your days week-to-week and not schedule care if it's not needed. However, we allow spots first to the families who set their schedules with us and need the same days week-to-week. 99% of the time there will be a spot available, but .. we do enroll in order to fill each spot when we can, so we cannot guarantee a spot with the Flexible Scheduling Option.
Our Set Schedule option : (for example) every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. We would guarantee that spot for your child each week.
We send out weekly automatic invoices that you are able to pay either online (with a card or bank account information), or at the facility (with cash, check, or credit card).
Our facility boasts a hands-on director/owner to continue improvements both in our academic offerings but overall functioning, and communication with our families.
